“My contribution to the Elephant Parade is a tribute to an animal which has huge ears, gigantic muscles and tail in both ends. The elephant does not make sense and I thought that my contribution does not have to either. So there are fried eggs, camouflage, roads and lots of patterns.”
Put up your hand, they stop and hop in the back with total strangers. They’ll take you to where you need to go, and you always get to meet new people on the way.
Art inspired by an excerpt from the tale “Dragons doesn’t know paradise” by Caio Fernando Abreu (renowned Brazilian writer), the nice elephant “Que Seja Doce” wants to surprise viewers and make the routine of São Paulo more sweet and joyful even for an instant. So, let it be sweet. Every morning, when I open the windows to let in the sunshine or the grayness of a day, that’s just what I repeat, let it be sweet. When is sunny and the sun strikes my face creased with sleep or insomnia, as I wacht the particles of dust floating in the air like a little universe, I repeat seven times for luck: let it be sweet let it be sweet let it be sweet and so on.” (Caio F. Abreu). And let be sweet everything that has to be!

The elephant statues from Elephant Parade are an initiative of Marc and Mike Spits. While Marc was on vacation in Chiang Mai, Thailand, he started talking to the Thai owner of the guesthouse where he was staying. He told him that Chiang Mai used to be the elephant epicenter of Thailand, but that the elephant is now almost extinct. Marc also heard through this man about the first elephant hospital in the world, founded by Soraida Salwala.
Marc traveled to Lampang, about 70 km outside Chiang Mai, where the elephant hospital is located. Marc: “Soraida told me about her initiative and how difficult it is to keep the hospital running. She received no subsidies from the government and the hospital was in dire need of expansion. But where do you get the resources?”
Soraida took Marc to Mosha, a seriously injured baby elephant who had lost her lower leg when she stepped on a landmine. “This was the point where I thought: I want to do something for Soraida and her elephants. And not just writing a check, but really something structural, so that we can offer the Asian elephant a future.”
